In December, the UCP rammed through an appalling assault on our democracy. One of its horrifying changes authorized people to buy political party memberships on behalf of other people WITHOUT consent.
I wonder why @jkenney wanted that? 🤔 #ableg https://t.co/46MpUTKoc2
Whenever @jkenney talks about inflation, please remind him that UCP policies make Albertans pay more for income tax, car insurance, tuition, electricity, education property taxes, vehicle registration, camping, phone bills, parks fees, school fees and more. #ableg#abpoli
Lol. Kenney went after me when I described some of the extremist elements of the UCP base as nut bars. Now Kenney himself is describing them as “kooky.” The monster that he created is turning against him. Hard to have much sympathy. #AbLeg#abpoli#cdnpoli https://t.co/0DJl9Th1La
In the legislature on Monday, @jkenney stood proudly and said Alberta AISH recipients and seniors who are losing thousands of dollars as a result of his Government’s policy decisions were making “modest sacrifices.” Seriously.

“Albertans cannot trust the UCP to protect lives and deploy an effective, science-based response to this public health crisis,” — @LoriSigurdson, NDP Critic for Mental Health and Addictions

“I’ve also asked the province to step up and support the city with their own injunction to give more weight to the potential legal enforcement of contraventions and bylaw infractions.” MLA CECI #yycbeltline#ableg#yyccc https://t.co/1MxgN9rCZ2
This bill from the @albertaNDP and @DeronBilous would establish a venture capital fund to invest in early-stage companies, startups and scale-ups.
This would diversify our economy and help our tech sector recover after the damage caused by the UCP. #ableg https://t.co/xU9hTt4EOi
As the Provincial representative for the Beltline, I’ve been hearing from constituents on the impacts of the long-running Saturday rallies in our community.
Here's some of what I've heard (identities removed for safety)👇🏼

Your rising household bills should be a top priority for the UCP Government.
Instead, they won't even consider common-sense ideas, like banning utility shutoffs in this difficult time.
Let's demand better. Let's demand a real plan to help Alberta families. #ableg#yyc#yeg
Weekly protests are causing chaos for residents and businesses in the Beltline, but the UCP government hasn't lifted a finger to address the problem.
Businesses have already endured the recession and the pandemic. They need support. #ableg#yyc https://t.co/aNC1Q58HH4
EDMONTON JOURNAL: "A draft bill offered up by the NDP Opposition, and put forward with a motion Wednesday, would have created a one-time expansion through the spring and summer, preventing utilities from being shut off until next April."

Reminder as we approach @jkenney's leadership review: UCP MLAs were completely united on the war on doctors, teacher pension hijack, cuts to AISH, open-pit coal mines, mass layoffs of education workers, etc.
It's not just Jason Kenney. They are all complicit. #ableg
We’re hearing from so many Albertans who owe their utility companies thousands.
The UCP ignored this problem for months, then failed to provide real rebates to help with skyrocketing costs for natural gas and electricity.

The protests in #yyc Beltline run along 17th Ave SW, the boundary between my constituency and @doug_schweitzer's.
Doug, we all support the right to protest, but your constituents and our area businesses are suffering. Can you make time this weekend to see for yourself? #ableg
